About Me and My Book:
My book, A Love That Never Dies, is a heartwarming story of a woman who will never forget her true love. Unfortunately, she may be sacrificing her relationship with her new husband for something that happened in the past.
A devastating court battle only adds to the saga as Patricia's life crumbles around her feet and she has to start over. Patricia must find a way to live in peace without Rob. Doing what is right takes a lot of courage as she finds out and learns about unconditional love.

Authors Everywhere

It's amazing to me to find that there are so many published, maybe not well-known, authors around. This weekend there were 2 at our local Farmer's Market trying to market their books. I know that the competition is tough, but strategy and hard work at marketing could be the best keys. Get your name out there. Make sure you have a website where people can leave you messages if you need to contact them. And make sure that you give out business cards, post cards, whatever it takes to everyone yo…

Hi Penny

It looks like you might be able to either profit by or contribute to my new Self Publishing group here on BMN.
Please take a look, we're trying to build it into a resource for writers who prefer to be their own publisher.

Good for you, Penny. Keep booking those book signings. And remember, every no could have been a yes and can still be an opportunity for a maybe.

When I downloaded my CD, it ask if I wanted it to automatically play continuously or if I wanted people to have to start it manually. I did the auto play continuously. Hope this helps. Glad you found some music to fit your site!

Well.. they say imitation is the best form of flattery! I have "copied your idea" and put some Turkish music on my page to get people into the mood of this land that is a cross between the Middle East and Europe. I will load up some more of my favourite tracks tonight! BUT a Q for you: How do you get the music to automatically play when someone opens your page? Mine doesn't seem to! You have to press play manually

I am very excited to say that I have just booked 2 more book signings for September 2007. Now that I have been more active in the marketing, I am seeing more results. Can other authors tell me if they have done any self-publishing or what other publishers they are using?

I am really just now getting started on real marketing. My grandson was just born last week, so the past few weeks have been very hectic for me. Thanks for the advice. The key...just keep plugging along and pushing those books!
